A place to call home is one of the most memorable movies I've ever watched. Linda Lavins performance was excellent and the supporting cast did a great job too. The trials the characters faced in their new surroundings and the reaction they got from the locals was very well written and totally believable. The culture divide between the American family and the Australians was not overdone, this was a very pleasant surprise. If you judge a movie on how well the characters are fleshed out and whether or not they touch you emotionally then this movie is a keeper. If action and overly dramatic scenes reminiscent of soap opera are your thing then this may not be for you.
